Hydramethylnon Insecticide

Hydramethylnon for Roach and Ant Control

Hydramethylnon is an organic chemical compound that is effective as a metabolic inhibitor. Years of research demonstrates that hydramethylnon is one of the most effective active ingredients for roach and ant baits, and has shown no signs of resistance in the target pests. Maxforce gel for ants and roaches, and Maxforce baits, contain this active ingredient, shown to poison target pests after just one feeding.

The delay between ingestion and death is the opportunity for social insects, such as cockroaches and ants, to transport the pesticide, even if just by returning to their colony or hiding spot to die. Roaches will eat other dead roaches, as well as roach feces, and also ingest the poison. Ants return to their colonies with the bait, which is then eaten and regurgitated by the larvae. This byproduct still contains the poison, and is subsequently fed to the rest of the colony including the queen. This allows for the Hydramethylnon to effect populations that are not reasonably able to be accessed otherwise.

After application, activity levels in insects will not immediately cease, or slow. Ingestion does not have immediate symptoms, and instead presents a delay after a few hours, resulting in lethargy of the effected pests. Within 1-4 days any insects that ingested the poison will die. The effectiveness of this ingredient in ant and roach populations is contributed to the Hydramethylnon reacting to high activity, high energy behavior. Coupled with temperature changes during insect travel and transport of the poison, the delayed reaction ensures successful sharing and spreading among the pests.

Roach and ant infestations can quickly become overwhelming for a homeowner or business owner. Do-it-yourself pest control combines professional-grade products, and trusted expert advice to allow for successful extermination of pest problems.

What excellent service - if you have genuinely already despatched the item, thank you very much! Nice to know we won't have to share a flat with these mice much longer ;) Great service. - chrisbirkett

I ordered Gentrol IGR from EPestSolutions and am pleased to say my order was received earlier than expected. There were no problems with my order and I found the employees to be knowledgeable and very friendly. As far as Gentrol IGR, it is awesome. While the rest of the neighbors are battling roaches with those department store baits, my house "seems" to be completely cockroach free. They converged on the neighborhood during a drought, and suddenly everyone had them. Since the biggest problem with cockroaches is their ability to exponentially breed, what better way to win the battle than insect birth control! I give EPestSolutions and Gentrol ***** Stars for great service and a fantastic product. The next time I see a cockroach, I hope it's in a museum under glass with the rest of the extinct species. As a bonus, I have seen a significant reduction in other insects as well. Thanks EPestSolutions and Gentrol for giving me back my house. Just a note, Gentrol is for indoor use only, and I limited mine to the areas around the bathroom, kitchen baseboards, behind cabinets, under sink, refrigerator, stove, inside doorways, edges of windows on the inside, and on the insulation and plumbing under the sub floor in the sealed crawlspace below the kitchen and bathroom. A good pest control program should be used in conjunction with other products, i.e., pump sprays, baits, and especially helpful are products with a stick attachment to reach wall voids and the smallest cracks. Ask EPestSolutions, and they will tell you exactly what you need at a fraction of the cost of an exterminator. Thanks Again,- L. Walker

InVict Gold is the best ever!, 11.7.2010This stuff is amazing. We had a real bad problem. After putting it out a week ago, at first every few hours we had to sweep up piles of dead roaches. A week later, sweep at night, then go to bed and get up and have to sweep again...which is great thing! Everytime word gets out about this discovery, they ask me where I got it. I can't keep the little magnet that came with each order. Everyone keeps taking it to give to someone else like a business card.-Joseph

I was very satisfied with the Catch All mouse trap and was very impressed by the fast delivery.-Ann

Your product is wonderful and I highly endorse it. Also, your prices & service are excellent. Keep up the good work! And enjoy your holidaysJill

I have been very impressed with the speed and accuracy of your shipments. Thank you.-John

Your Insect glue boards are wonderful! :0) -Diane

Hi, just wanted to drop a line and say I really like your site. It was easy to use and up front. I was able to go right to what I needed. I fouind the same product I bought dfor cheaper on Amazon, but because of the ease of your site, I bought from you all. Thank you!-Nadia

After informing epestsolution of a problem I had with the spray can delivery system you immediately sent a replacement w/o any questions. Thank you,-pleased customer

However, we ordered Snap-E-Mousetraps because we had purchased some several years ago but have never been able to find them since (in stores) so we were so very happy to find them on-line with your company. They are already catching mice in our 100 year old farm house and working very well. They are easy to set and easy to unload (dead mice). Your prompt shipping was very nice, too. -Margaret

Not to take up too much time, I ordered those snap mouse traps. They work!!! Mostly, I appreciate the quick response. When I need anything else in this area, I will remember you guys.-Olivia

I received my order awhile back and wondered where I can leave you positive feedback? The order was just as I hoped, Shipping was very fast, and Cindy was Very helpful.

OK you are now my mew BFF!! Thanks so very much for your help with this. I really really appreciate it. Death to ANTS! :)-Heather

Comments: I understand that employees are the backbone of every successful company. But,sometimes their true value is lost in the everyday routine work they perform. Your company has a very valuable asset in Cindy (sales). What ever her current rate of pay, it is not enough. She made ordering from ePet very easy and enjoyable. She spoke perfect english, was knowledgeable about product and was friendly. She makes you money! Pay her MORE boys !!!-Praising Cindy

The rat traps work great we caught 18 mice so Thanks -Terry

Thank you for such prompt and thorough service.-Janis

I received the order today. Thanks for the speedy shipping! Let me know where I can leave you positive feedback and I will be glad to do it! Thanks again-Greg

I can truly say that your service was excellent and I have since recommended you to co-workers and friends. Let me know how I should proceed from here to provide feedback. Thanks again,-Mack

Thank you very much for taking the time to find this installation video for me. I truly appreciate it. I will try to install them this weekend. Thank you.

Love the custom sprayer. Thanks again for your help!-J

Wow! I cannot believe how quickly I received my product . I have always been reluctant to order products online, but your price for the Tempo SC Ultra product was so much better than the price of local businesses that it was worth taking the risk.

I checked out your business along with others via the BBB before placing my order. Your "A" rating helped ease my reluctancy as other online businesses did not rate as well and of course, they were not in Texas.

I am so impressed with your organization, I will not only order from you again, but will refer your organization to everyone I know. I absolutely love the Tempo product for all my pest control needs both in and out side of my home. I will never purchase this from anyone else.

Thank you so much for your professionalism and honesty as an online business. You help set the standards of how these businesses should operate.-Donna
